Donovan has been selling its sheeting systems since 1977 and backs them via its Sittingbourne, Kent depot and a UK-wide service chain.
Its mainstay product for steel and aluminium tipper truck bodies is the 9000 system; its 22-coil under-body spring and 24V motor carry a threeyear warranty.
A simple, cheaper alternative is the 2000SR pullout system with retractable tarp.
For tipping trailers up to 11.6m long, Donovan offers the Bullet cover with sturdy aluminium arms, 22-coil springs and 24V motor.
There are two models for longer (15.2m) waste bulk traders: the Sidewinder single and Doublef lip double lid, both fully automatic, enabling the driver to cover a trailer from ground level in less than 20 seconds.
Such durable, efficient systems improve worker safety and save valuable time, allowing more loads per day.
Donovan skip vehicle covers include the pull-out SkipManual and SkipAuto, which has hydraulically extending arms, and for taller bins there's the semi-automatic Hy-Tower — a simple, armless lowmaintenance sheet.
Next January, Donovan brings out the Gladiator automatic sheet for hook-loaders and after that there will be a new skip cover too.
